Alamo Title® is a company built on a rock-solid foundation and is truly a pioneer in the title industry having been originally formed in 1922 as the Alamo Abstract and Title Company and has had an established, successful history of writing title policies for many generations of San Antonio families. By 1998 the company had merged with Fidelity National Financial which later went on to acquire the Commonwealth Land and Title Company and Lawyers Title Insurance Corporations. That means that Alamo Title Company® is now a major part of the Fidelity Title Insurance Group which is the largest Title Insurance Company in the United States.
Eddie Hall, President of Alamo Title®, began his title industry career as a courier and over the years graduated through various positions within the company until finally taking over the reins in 2010. Eddie is considered by many to be a visionary leader who fosters a workplace atmosphere that encourages all to excel. Employees are able to display their current skills while continuing to perfect them as they collaborate with their teams and management is quick to show respect and appreciation for work well done. Under Eddie’s leadership and with the efforts of his team, Alamo Title® has captured the #1 position on total market share in the Greater San Antonio area.
Even though Alamo Title® is a local company with local employees it has a powerful national reach. They are a proud company, comprised of resolute and talented individuals who have the desire and knowledge to succeed. The heart of the company are the 107 dedicated employees within the 8 branches and 2 fee offices in the San Antonio area that provide quality service and embrace a commitment to being accessible and responsive to all their customers’ needs.
The use of “ratings” has become a necessity for acceptability and marketability in the title insurance industry. Having gained a reputation as the most reliable title company in the area, Alamo far exceeds the minimum acceptable ratings required by the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA). Locally, records in the Alamo Title® Plant cover Bexar, Comal, Guadalupe and Kendall counties with some records that date back to 1850. Because of the vast network to which they are connected, Texas based Alamo Title® can obtain title information in virtually every state and can thus facilitate transactions in other parts of the country.
Alamo Title® strives to be visible in the real estate community and a part of industry/community activities and events. They also schedule Texas accredited Continuing Education (CE) courses and offer helpful technology resource solutions.
Celebrating 100 years of continuous service, Alamo Title Company® has certainly earned its place in industry history, a position of distinction and respect. The company understands that it is people who drive their business and they are thankful for the REALTORS®, Builders, Developers and Bankers that consistently utilize their services. The Alamo family is known for its delivery of fast, accurate and quality service and are proud of the relationships they have built within the San Antonio professional real estate and financial communities.
Alamo Title® has made great strides to combat the wire fraud epidemic by initiating the startSafe program to advance security protocols and set up multi-factor identification for secure digital experiences. startSafe is an intuitive, question-based information collection process which guides consumers to provide and confirm necessary information. When that process is done it provides information on wire safety and issues specific wiring instructions that are delivered securely for consumers to review and acknowledge with an electronic signature.
